    Insulating oil in x-ray tube applications plays a crucial role in providing electrical insulation between high-voltage components and dissipating heat generated during operation. The oil helps prevent electrical discharges by creating a stable insulating barrier, which is vital in high-voltage applications. Additionally, the oil serves as a coolant, absorbing heat from the x-ray tube and helping to maintain the proper operating temperature. Regular oil testing and maintenance, including filtration to remove impurities, are essential for ensuring the oil’s performance. GlobeCore manufactures oil filtration systems to maintain oil quality in x-ray tube applications.
